Not that great but he can learn IMO

Bosh was bad defensively but we changed him

Actually Bosh was really good, in 08 Mike said he's the best pick and roll defender. Lewis was bad, we made him decent.

Rebounding, Blocked Shots, Paint Defense...... come on man. I love Bosh, but he needs to go.........

Dwight and defense doesn't belong in the same sentence, maybe back a few years ago when he was in the Magic before his back problems, but as a Rocket everyone was having their way on the paint, their defense was better with Asik.

He really is, but people making fun of us cause he isn't some big name and some white guy who looks like Jesus lmao

He is one of those blue collar players, good energy guys and for a big guy he averages 4 assists per game. I like his versatility and the Heat obviously like that he shoots 3's at 36%

LBJ met with Riley and nothing happend(I'm holding strong on this)
Riley went out and got McBob, Granger....
Bosh report comes out of Rockets..
Bosh responds with his passion for Mismi and playing with Bron
LBJ is flying to Vegas(Camp)

And now Brousard says......

So someone please explain to me what part has "insiders" got right? LBJ? Meetings? Bosh? Granger? McBob?

lol this really is the most incredible part of it all. Literally every move the Heat have made outside of Napier has come with zero sauces "reporting" on it beforehand. Pretty much been Riley's MO since he got here, yet still surprising every single time.

We turned Quentin Richardson into an in-shape defensive stopper lol

The Dwight for Bosh stuff was played out in 10-11.

So true the McBob and Granger moves came out of nowhere nobody knew anything until today.

Hm there were reports the Heat liked McRoberts but I think that was ethan or someone, but nobody saw the heat going after him strongly and even getting him

LeBron to Cavs died down a little bit.

Dude can finish/pass with either hand, range beyond the 3pt line, be effective off the ball, and create off the dribble. Other than offensive rebounding he has a pretty ideal PF skillset for us offensively.

Idk there are various Twitter accounts still assuring that LeBron will be returning to Cleveland

Not sure of their credibility, but they are pretty adamant.

Bosh quote doesn't surprise me. It's consistent with everything we've heard from local guys.

Also, makes sense since a story I've heard from a few friends of mine in the sports business world is that LeBron and Wade and Bosh and (lol I know) Joe Johnson all talked playing together in '08 as a dream scenario, as teams cleared cap space and it started looking like 2 or 3 teams could clear space for all 3 (if that's what it took) Bosh was the one that pushed for a warm weather city, and that LeBron was indifferent unless/until everything was set/realistic.

McRoberts looks like Johnny Tapia from Bad Boys II

Lets be real now, we have no cap to sign anybody if we take the exception route. This isnt enough, im not sure what pat riley is going to do, he has no other option

Judging from that Pau Instagram pic/ twitter he might go back to LA, as expected
